The Lakers proved their toughness with a gritty OT win against the Knicks, but with a brutal road trip ahead—including matchups against the Celtics, Bucks, and Nuggets—can they maintain their defensive dominance? Meanwhile, Jalen Brunson’s ankle injury sent shockwaves through New York’s title hopes. Could the Knicks tumble down the standings, opening the door for Milwaukee or Indiana to make a push?
Over in Dallas, former Mavs owner Mark Cuban didn’t hold back, saying the team lacks leadership and communication. But is that really the issue, or did the front office completely botch the Luka Doncic trade? We break down the ripple effects of the move and whether the Mavericks have a path forward.
Plus, Coby White delivered a career-high 44-point performance—should Bulls fans feel optimistic, or is Chicago just stuck in mediocrity? And in our “Say What?!” segment, Draymond Green’s latest comments spark controversy again, this time regarding Karl-Anthony Towns missing a game.
We also get nerdy with the NBA’s new “Net Points” stat—does it actually tell us anything new, or is it just another flawed attempt to quantify basketball? And finally, one of the hottest takes we’ve ever heard about the Orlando Magic’s future—should they be reconsidering the Paolo Banchero and Franz Wagner duo? All that and more on today’s Locked On NBA!
